Answer:
Part a)
[tex]t = 5.1 s[/tex]
Part b)
[tex]x = 176.7 m[/tex]
Explanation:
Initial speed of the launch is given as
[tex]v_i = 40 m/s[/tex]
angle = 30 degree
Now the two components of the velocity
[tex]v_x = v_i cos30[/tex]
[tex]v_x = 34.6 m/s[/tex]
similarly we have
[tex]v_y = v_i sin30[/tex]
[tex]v_y = 20 m/s[/tex]
Part a)
Now to find the time of flight we will have
[tex]\Delta y = v_y t + \frac{1}{2}at^2[/tex]
[tex]-25 = 20 t -\frac{1}{2}(9.81)t^2[/tex]
[tex]t = 5.1 s[/tex]
Part b)
Distance at which the ball will land is given as
[tex]x = v_x t[/tex]
[tex]x = 34.6 (5.1)[/tex]
[tex]x = 176.7 m[/tex]
Part c)
Since x direction there is no acceleration so it will move with uniform speed while in y direction it will accelerate due to gravity
